Accord cements a commitment to collaboration in landscapes across Northern Ireland, England and Wales
In a landmark moment for UK landscapes, Philip Hygate, National Landscapes Association Chair and Martin Carey, Landscapes NI Chair, signed a joint Accord at the Enriched Environments, Enriched Lives event at Stormont today.
The Accord recognises the enormous commonality in the aims and work of National Landscapes teams across England and Wales and their peers in Northern Ireland’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty; and details a commitment from the National Landscapes Association and Landscapes NI to explore more opportunities to collaborate, share learnings and build the nation’s resilience to nature depletion, climate change and the health and wellbeing crisis.
The National Landscapes Association is delighted to be forming ever stronger links with the Landscapes teams across Northern Ireland - there is so much potential to expand nature restoration efforts, climate change mitigation work and support more people to reap the immense benefits and enjoyment of time in green and blue spaces.
